Frosty outside, isn't it?
Certainly in Bedfordshire, we've seen the first frosts of winter over the weekend. This morning, I wandered out into the the golden glow of the sunrise, and complete with a crisp, cold frost, it was the perfect start to the day.
For me, I love the early frosty mornings. There's something special about being out early with just noisy blackbirds, chattering starlings and shouty wrens for company! Here's a wonderful frosty shot from Mike Read, that I thought perfectly summed up this morning for me.
